The health and well-being of drivers and customers are of utmost importance to Dropbird, and we are committed to making your Dropbird experience as safe as possible. Dropbird provides critical support to the infrastructure of our communities by delivering essential goods. Accordingly, we will continue to operate as local conditions and restrictions allow, to support deliveries as needed. We continue to monitor COVID-19 locally, nationally, and internationally and will keep you updated
Below are the actions that we have taken to protect drivers and customers.
Non-Contact Proof of Delivery
As you may be aware, the Dropbird platform enables the selection of electronic signature proof of delivery. Since COVID-19, we have introduced Non-Contact Proof of Delivery. Deliveries requiring a signature must still be received by the customer versus left in a safe place, but in-app signature collections have been replaced with proof of delivery via photograph.
We’ve provided the following guidance to drivers to help prevent driver exposure to the virus, and reduce the spread of COVID-19
- Clean your hands often with an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol - cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry - or wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Soap and water should be used preferentially if hands are visibly dirty.
- Clean AND disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. This includes phones, door handles, steering wheel, armrests, etc. Disinfectant disposable wipes are recommended for quick and easy application.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands & avoid shaking hands.
- Maintain physical distancing @ 1.5m (6ft) distance between you and others.
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or into your elbow when you cough or sneeze. If you don’t have a tissue, cough, or sneeze into your upper sleeve, not your hands
- Avoid touching your face.
- If you are sick, please remove yourself from the schedule and do not come in to work at Dropbird.
